Chimike Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 (edited) Well, I got so excited when someone clicked on my Genz Benz Shuttle for sale, I decided to sell my Sunburst Variax 4 stringer. The bass is like new, has all the bits that normally come with it, including the Di power box, special lead, and the super soft/hard case. Case is a bit dusty, but not from gigging, I lent it to a friend who does recording . Some people swear by these basses, and others don't like them, but I think that they are certainly worth trying, especially if you only have one bass. NOW SOLD THANKYOU.

pal1972 Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 looking for a straight sale or any trades?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chimike Posted December 31, 2009 Author Share Posted December 31, 2009 Just a sale, thanks, I've got more bass gear than any sane person can cope with, as I never ,(usually), sell anything. Guess what my new years resolution is ! Thanks for asking . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyTravis Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 £345 is a winner for one of these. I like them for recording...but i like new basses too much to have an 'all in one'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jawwww Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 That is a very good price! I bought mine for much more than that and it was totally worth it. I haven't seen a better bass for recording. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matty Posted January 2, 2010 Share Posted January 2, 2010 I love my 5 string. Tempted by this one too. Any pics? Is it black or sunburst? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owen Posted January 2, 2010 Share Posted January 2, 2010 Can it model alternative tunings? Could it be fooled into thinking it had a low B even though it was only a low E? Dose that make sense? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I doubt it, but just in case...)[/quote] No. But I've learn't the hard way not to trust the post or carriers, so (for instance) I'd be willing to travel to bedfordshire for tea and diesel, providing I am going in that direction. (I travel with my work sometimes ). That way I can be assured that the Bass arrives intact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
